Memes don’t just shape culture—they transcend biological systems, influencing evolution itself. Like genes, they might exploit scale-free networks, steering adaptation across neural, social, and even genomic landscapes. Maybe information, not just life, is what evolves. 🧪 🖥️ 🧬 #AcademicSky #PhilSci
The cover of The Selfish Gene (40th Anniversary Edition) by Richard Dawkins. Dawkins explores evolution from the gene’s perspective, arguing that natural selection favors genes that maximize their own replication, shaping the behavior of organisms, including altruism, as a strategy for gene survival.

The UK Health Secretary, Wes Streeting, has summed up Europe's security predicament better than I ever could:

"I don’t think we should be in any doubt whatsoever that the front line in Ukraine is the front line for Europe and the front line for Britain’s security too."

We have satellite imaging now. The #CCP (Chinese Communist Party) has nowhere to run and hide.

China's megadevelopment projects in #Tibet serve #China’s strategic interests in resource control & territorial claims but have devastating effects on Tibet’s ecosystem, ancient cultural sites, and the rights of its inhabitants.

This week, of all weeks, is an auspicious time to post success stories. We shall overcome, despite the onslaught of vulgarity, criminality, bible-bashing, #book-burning infamy and #ignorance.

I present you with the yellow-bellied #toad. A success in #Wallonia.
